Cocaine is the new weed, I need your opinions Options

[Jen]

I posted this on MySpace. I'd really like to see what you guys have to say about this.

"Why, in the past year, has cocaine become the new weed? Instead of "getting stoned off pot" at parties, people are in the bathroom doing lines of coke.

My uncle and aunt lost their baby because they were doing it in front of her, and selling ALL of their stuff to get it. I lost a few friends because their personalities changed 100% because of their drug use. They would become violent and out of control. It makes me sad."

My best friend in the entire world started doing it after she and I moved in together.. and it completely changed our relationship.. she broke into my room.. bleached my things.. f-cked up things. She is not the person I went to high school with. She is completely different. And that friendship which was the best friendship I ever had is now over because of it.

Where are these kids my age getting the money to do such things? What is wrong with our society?

Please let me know your opinions. I'm really interested and concerned.

I cant believe this topic has showed up right now with all the crap that has been happening to me lately. I dont know what to do so maybe i could get some input from you guys. My 2 best friends all through out grade/middle/ and high school have become tottaly different people. I mean a total 180 turn around. It all started when a few months before high school ended when we got to talking about moving out together. Well i kept talking to them about how much bull sh*t it was that they where smoking all this weed all the time and i hated it and i really wanted them to stop. Well they would have none of it. So i told them that no i wouldnt moving in with them. I even gave them reasons like, i hate the smell of pot, i hate what it does to people, and they would constantly be haveing parties and i dont want that at the place where i live. They denied all of them. Well here we are 6 months after high school and there apartment is a **** hole from the parties and they have totally become entirerly different people. They dont want to have anything to do with me and they say that we will never be friends again or even on speaking grounds unless i smoke with them. Which is total bull sh*t. Im not smoking anything. But another problem is, is that they are high 24/7 (they even admitted it) and i know one of these days when they are just driving around smoking in the car they are going to get the idea to come up to my apartement and f*ck with the celi. because they always used to do that **** to other peoples cars in high school. So i dunno what to do about these guys becasue we were friends through everything and now its nothing and also all the friggin money im putting into my car is going to be for nothing cause they are going to come up here and mess with it. I just know. So if you guys have any input that would be awesome. Thanks a bunch. You guys rock.
